Trondheim, Norway

1) Adventure is 24 year-old North Carolina native and recent Baltimore transplant Benny Boeldt. His ultra-melodic synth compositions pull from his earliest exposure to the 16-bit soundtracks of the Sega Genesis video game catalog. But it’s not just retro video game music. Mix in the kitschy Moogy sound of Hot Butter’s “Popcorn”, the saturated disco-theatrics of late seventies electro-pop acts like Sparks and Yellow Magic Orchestra, and a penchant for Eastern European diminished scales and you’ve come pretty close to Adventure’s accelerated baroque sound.

Adventure is an advanced, dance-floor friendly take on the music of early video gaming. Let the epic quest for the master sword begin!

2) Adventure is a progressive rock band from Norway.

    I really like this new one. The cheese and nostalgia are still there. Totally thought I had outgrown Adventure but my love is still there.
